AT&T has announced a new plan called Mobile Share, which lets you connect up to 10 devices on the same account.

Phone calls and text messages are unlimited, the data for your emails and videos and Facebook updates, that's capped -- and that's where AT&T will get you. Plus, according to recent studies, Facebook is losing popularity.
